I’m not going to tell you how difficult it is to find great guest reviewers because I’ve said it before, but we seem to be beating the odds. Today I’m pleased that we have been fortunate to pluck a wonderful reviewer like magic from the skies in the person of Lasha, who is well known to a lot of the regulars on the site because she seems to visit here almost every day. 🙂 Here’s a short bio of Lasha
Hi, I’m Lasha. If you’ve heard of the name before, I will assume you are a Luke & Laura and General Hospital fan. Long before I was a soap opera nut I was a book worm. I’ve been reading mainstream romances since I was in the sixth grade. I would check out Harlequins from the library – I lived behind the place and made friend with all the librarians – and read them at school when I was bored. My teacher was not amused I was blowing off math for nurse/doctor drama! But thanks to Silhouette and Harlequin I learned all about the birds and the bees long before my mother every gave me “The Talk.” My love for romance novels was only surpassed by my love of The Hardy Boys.
Now, my reading tastes are more geared towards m/m romances, but in the end I am a romantic for life. Personal stuff? I am a former police officer turned flight attendant turned teacher now grad student who is owned by 2 cats, 1 dog and the many foster animals that go in and out of my home. I long to move some place where it doesn’t snow and have a very naughty weekend with Bruce Springsteen before I die – that is, if his wife Patti will let us. Other than that, as I used to tell my students, I have no idea what I want to do when I grow up. 🙂
I know you will welcome Lasha who is looking forward to giving you her best advice about books she’s read. :jump: Will her first review be a 1 star or 5 star? Sit back and enjoy! :popcorn:
Welcome Lasha. Looking forward to reading your reviews. BTW, I’ve watched soaps for over 20 years.
Which shows? 🙂 Are you as angry as I am that ATWT, AMC and OLTL are gone or going away?
GH is my guilty pleasure, and I don’t tell people that ever! :anonym:
Can’t wait to read your reviews Lasha!
Luke/Laura and Sonny/Brenda are my favorite couples. You?
Thanks for the welcome.
I don’t really have a fave couple right now Lasha…..but I do think that Lulu/Dante and Michael/Abby have great sexual chemistry.
I was a big old school Brenda and Jax fan. I don’t even know who this Brenda is on the screen, not the Brenda I used to like that’s for sure.
I have to agree w/you about Vanessa Marcil’s return. This is not Brenda. Sonny and Brenda had amazing chemistry in the past and now it seems VM is sleeping thru her scenes. Oh well, at least we still have Luke and Lucky. 🙂
Welome Lasha. Looking forward to your reviews.
Thank you, Tam.
Welcome, Lasha!
Thank you! 😀
Hello Lasha,
I’m another Springsteen fan :god: Looking forward to your reviews.
I’ve seen The Boss 14 times in concert over the years and he just gets better and better as he ages.
Glad to know another Bruce fan. 😎
Welcome Lasha and good luck with the reviews!
Thank you very much!
When I watched….I was a Robin/Stone fan (that was his name right?)
Me too. I loved Robin/Stone too, I was so sad when he died. 🙁
Welcome aboard, Lasha! I’m looking forward to your reviews!
And I like this: 2:1 for the cats. XD
Cats rule. 😀
Congrats Lasha! I knew you’d make it 🙂 I’m looking forward to your first review.
Speaking of Soaps, I’m watching Sandcastles which is a movie from 72 that’s kinda like a soap. I used to watch Passions because it was so ridiculous it was awesome!
I will have to look for that Cole. Thanks! I loved Passions – Timmy was my fav.
Would I not be welcome in this group if I have never watched a soap and love dogs? 😀
I love dogs too, Wave. :bananadancer: In fact, I have a lovely Italian Greyhound I am fostering right now – tell me how I can ship him to you and he’s yours!
I had a Doberman and he passed away 6 years ago but I’m still not ready for another one so I play with all the dogs in the neighbourhood. 🙂 I love Greyhounds and Weimaraners next to Dobes.
Hi Lasha, welcome to the show! I wish you many good books and lots of fun.
Thank you so much.
Thanks so much!
Yeah, welcome aboard Lasha. 🙂
Merci. Love your icon.
OOOOO, another great reviewer :). welcome Lasha!
Thank you for the welcome.
Hi Lasha! Welcome and looking forward to your reviews 😀
Thank you. 😀
Welcome Lasha! It’s been years since I’ve watched soaps, but yes, I remember Luke and Laura and General Hospital.
I think everyone (including my younger brother) watched GH’s Luke and Laura during their heyday. Thanks for the welcome.
Welcome Lasha! Looking forward to reading your reviews 🙂
Welcome to the this crazy crew, Lasha! (Sorry, I just saw the announcement.) I’m looking forward to your reviews! Yay! What fun! 🙂
